Shipping Meme Day Twenty-One

Favorite opposites attract couple:

All of them?  But to be serious, the kind of ship I like most is definitely of the opposites attract variety, particularly with slash.  I tend to like clean cut, by the book, boy scout types paired with sloppier, more morally grey characters.  It's my jam.  As a variant, I also like neat, uptight regimented types paired with characters who are much more out of the box.  I like so many that it's hard to pick just one.  Maybe Arthur/Eames from Inception?  There's so many great stories out there with them, and they have such a great dynamic that it's obvious why.  Fraser/Ray Kowalski from Due South fits the bill too, and I love that ship to death.  But seriously, a gazillion others fit too.  It's a really good bet that I'll love this type.

I really love opposites as well. Jack and Daniel are a good example.

Yeah, they are. It's almost always a good bet for chemistry!
